Changelog

Instagram publishing is live

• Post Scheduler for Instagram — Meta approved ViralDM's Instagram publishing permission in App Review on 23 October. Posts, Reels, Stories and carousels you schedule are now published to Instagram for you, from the web dashboard, the app, the API and MCP

Grow your account, post everywhere, connect everything

• Growth Coach — a Monday report: followers gained, your best post and why, what to post this week and three hooks per topic
• Post everywhere — one composer for Facebook Pages, LinkedIn and your Telegram channel. Instagram gets a post-now reminder with the caption ready, because Meta has not approved publishing for ViralDM; YouTube and Pinterest join once Google and Pinterest approve us
